Solutions for Distribution

Automated Storage/Retrieval System (AS/RS)

We invest millions of dollars every year to develop innovations that change the way products are moved, stored, and sequenced. Our latest breakthrough is DUOSYS, a super-fast mini load AS/RS. What makes DUOSYS unique is two cranes can run at the same time in the same aisle, passing each other without interference, reaching every rack position smoothly and efficiently. Even better, it is more than four times as fast as similar systems.

Automatic Guided Vehicles/Carts

Daifuku North America's most popular product is SmartCart Automatic Guided Cart. Manufactured in the U.S., SmartCarts are affordable, flexible and durable. They are guided by magnetic tape, which means the path can be changed quickly and easily. SmartCarts are at the center of hundreds of warehouses and manufacturing plants where they are being used to move anything from small parts to palletized loads up to 6,000 pounds.

Conveyors

We have a reputation for supplying the most durable and reliable conveyors in the material handling industry. We work with customers to design innovative conveyor systems that meet their unique needs. Whether it's moving musical instruments to an area for packaging or transporting furniture through a finishing system, our conveyors can help increase productivity and improve your bottom line.

Software & Controls

To run your distribution or fulfillment facility at peak efficiency you need the most effective and productive informational tools. Every facet of your operation is a source of valuable information that, if harnessed, can optimize and measure productivity and provide valuable statistical data in real time.

Sorting & Picking Systems

Whether deployed in a manual or fully-automated operation, Daifuku North America's sorting and picking systems enable electronic communication to workers or equipment regarding the location and amount of inventory to be distributed or stored. Daifuku has provided fast, efficient and accurate sorting and picking systems to numerous distribution centers for convenience stores, supermarkets, and pharmaceutical wholesalers.
